End of the third week of the stretch and they certain out did stretch indeed馃槼. Had to crop over the tallest female - she just stretched wayyy too much and that鈥檚 gonna go against her in the rankings when we draw out our seed on each plant. The first male has dropped fully and the others are another 1-2 days out from harvest. We鈥檒l collect all that pollen and store it for future use if it鈥檚 needed. The plants are all showing both similarities and differences - there鈥檚 an even distribution of sativa and indica leaning phenos which suggests that there is def. Some variability in terms of traits for this F1 generation. Exactly what we were looking for as we pare this down to the second filial generation. On the overall growth - absolutely no issues at all with nutritional deficiencies which is a welcome change of pace. The last while we鈥檝e been growing some strains that have shown very odd reactions to nute changes and I suspect this is a result of certain strains simply being bred out too far. Hard to say but the radar is definitely up with the well known breeders right now. We have some real winner pheno clones that we鈥檝e rooted and will be flowering out once we get this tent cleaned up and free of pollen. All told, the run is progressing much better than anticipated and with the rate of turnover through transition, I鈥檓 happy to say that there isn鈥檛 any one plant I won鈥檛 consider test running on the next cycle. We did have some og auto genetics in the tent for pollination as well but that plant is looking like a bit of a mutant. Not sure if we鈥檒l even bother with testing it at this point but you never know. Expect a harvest update on the males as we move in to the flowering side of the grow and then it鈥檚 just waiting around for seed馃憤. Alls well for now. Background This project has been a year in strain selection (and another year in the actual making) to get to this point with a viable potential cross. It鈥檒l be a true polyhybrid with a mix of sativa and indica leaning properties for each. We鈥檝e combined an especially powerful hybrid sativa strain of Strawberry with an equally manageable and hard hitting strain of indica dominant Skywalker OG. The hope has always been to combine them and boil out the best characteristics of each. The strawberry is phenomenal in terms of terp profile and a mix of strong head and body effects while the Skywalker is a mind bending, body butter kind of indica with that earthy Kush profile and flowery undertones. The strawberry is prone to botrytis and fasciation but features excellent terps and yields if grown correctly. She鈥檚 Also stretchy and somewhat unruly when she gets going. The Skywalker is a contrast in growth characteristics with a squat structure, medium sized buds and excellent resilience and resistance. The plan is to seed out the available females and take cuts of what we can post-stretch to get a closer look at any differing phenos. Still very much early stages for a stabilized new strain but we鈥檝e got the right foundation of solid genetics. Now we just gotta get it off the ground to the next generation馃憤. We鈥檙e predominantly focused on the plants that demonstrate that hybrid vigour and wasting no time with any problem plants or runts. Stay tuned - with a little luck, this cross is gonna be straight 馃敟馃槑馃憣.

Day 43 All four ladies are now in flower mode. They are still looking healthy but the fight against aphis continues. I've tried garlic a few times but they keep coming, so now I am going to make a tomato leaf mixture. I've read garlic chases everything, but tomato leaves chase only the bad bugs. Tonight I will water with plain water with a ph of about 6.5, then give them a stronger dose of nutes for its current stage of growth this Saturday. Day 45 Did a bit more LST on Sour Diesel, Diesel and Royal Kush. They all got the full treatment today, I watered them with nutes and after a bit I sprayed neem oil to deal with the aphids. Day 48 Everything is still looking really nice. I sprayed some Bioneem Oil a little while ago and left it from there. I've been going every night picking off the bugs, but with the neem I've left it to see if they still try. Each day I do a little training to make sure the growth is guided. Day 50 We are on the last day of this week and I'm just amazed at the growth. My previous auto grows were just sad and nowhere near as good a looking as these. The neem seems to be working ok I guess, but I have only sprayed once. I want to get a solid schedule going with watering, nutrients and pest control. I was going to water twice but the grow medium holds water really well. Saturday = Nutrients Monday = Pest control Wednesday = Water

Had a lot going on this week so the plants didnt get any care or maintenance at all other than just checking on the water level a couple times. They need some major defoliation which I wanted to do this week but procrastination is the vibes currently. Will probably get some done next week.... the plants are looking good and most of them are bushing out pretty nice. They dont seem to be stretching as much as they normally do by this time, but they are transitioning to flower. Will probably do a flush and water change soon since they haven't had one in over a month. I'm just anxious to see some frosty buds at this point.

so here we are, didn't really have time or effort to finish just because was really busy doing other stuff, but can't complain about anything in this grow, the condition and the space was limited but I'm really happy with the final result, big thumb up for zamnesia

Chai Tea with Snoop Dogg and Hei-di 馃槅 So far just giving a little bit of water twice per week. She should have enough nutrients packed into that little can until flower starts!

They are going slow but steady. Holding back on watering to help fight the gnats. They were with too many last week. Some yellow points because of an 'on the limit' foliar feed. Nothing to worry about. Still very lush greens. I'm thinking the main reason for their slower growth, is the fan that is on high. My mission from the start s to get thick stalks and branches, to facilitate larger buds. Also, I'm pushing the SP 3000 to its max for the age of my plants, they don't have to reach for the light, resulting in shorter, bushier plants. I don't mind, I think the flowering stretch will make up for that and fill the tent. Still very happy with the SP-3000 from Mars Hydro, a much more constant and manageable climate in the tent, a dream to work with. I made a thank you video for @MarsHydroLED, of course, to also show off my music. I'm thinking one or two more weeks before resetting the light schedule for flowering. I'm already late and if another week will deliver bigger and more buds, I will give them what they need. For those living in Europe, wanting to try super soil, see my recipe in the images. Thank you for following and your likes and support! It really keeps me motivated. Big Hug Bud

Welcome to 馃搮Day 36 flower 4/19/2021 we are now fully into flower and she is looking good. I think maybe I may need to increase the cal-mag a bit as it looks like there is a slight deficiency but she is still healthy. The Mars hydro TS 1000馃挕 is working great and I now have it at 100%. That's all for this weeks first update Happy growing and keep your stick on the ice 馃彃 Update 馃搮Day 40 flower 4/23/2021 she is growing fast and looking great under the Mars Hydro TS 1000 I made a little change in the auto pot and added a an air stone into each pot and a new 2 port air pump to go with it this will keep the solution moving in the bottom of the pot so that the surface does not get grimy and potentially get contaminated and thus harm the plants. It also has the bonus of adding more air to the solution

11/20 Monday she鈥檚 doing really good she won鈥檛 need water today I moved the light pretty far away I may even turn the temperature down even more I am flowering three blackjacks in the other tent of the same size at 90 W with the Mars Hydro light so for the last week I may just take it down even more two weeks I smoked some after just drying it for two or three days and it is completely different from smoking blackjack. It is a very intense sedative smell. Smells like gum smells great, but I鈥檓 kind of astounded at how strong it is. After smoking just a little bit I was moving super slow motion. . . Took me over two hours to pour one cup of coffee. That鈥檚 how slow time became. It was greatest day of my life. 11/21 Tuesday. I just squeezed the buds a little bit and these are the most dense buds that I have grown in the three years that I鈥檝e been learning to do this. The only difference is I used the Boombastic and I used fruit infusion by General hydroponics yesterday, so I really think that one nutrient supplement the Boombastic has made all the difference. I鈥檝e never had that before. It鈥檚 so great greatest day of my life. 11/22 gave half gallon of water with nutrients and supplements 11/24 I gave her just plain water today. I think I鈥檓 just gonna do water for the last couple of weeks. She is looking spectacular really starting to take off now. I think she has enough nutrients in the soil so I shouldn鈥檛 eat any for the last couple of weeks I always put too much. 11/25 Saturday morning. I gave her a little bit more water this morning i鈥檓 going to keep her nutrient free I think for the rest of the grouch she only has maybe two more weeks and I don鈥檛 wanna make the mistake of doing this too long on critical. She鈥檚 doing really good. This is one of my best ones I think maybe two weeks more.

I'm really happy about the quality of this strain, but I'm unhappy about the final results.. I think it was a setup mistake in the room, it probably took lots of heat but I got other seeds of it I'll probably will do another diary with her! Okay guys, thanks for the support and we will se in the next room, happy growing to everyone 馃挌馃崁馃挴
